The basic problem at the moment is TortiseGit is 64-bit while Gpg4win is 
32-bit.  TortiseGit cannot see/use the 32-bit gpg-agent to extract the signing 
key I created.

I use SmartGit for cherry-picking and patches. I use TortiseGit for branching, 
tagging, and commits.

Not to my knowledge. Maybe ease of use...?

Release tags in particular could (or even should) be annotated tags because it 
wouldn't make much sense to update or delete them afterwards
- they should become part of the repo's history. However, lightweight tags are 
just fine for everything else that doesn't need to (or just
shouldn't) be part of the repo's history. If you use lightweight tags for 
release tags as well, you depend on the committers' good behavior so that they 
don't mess with those tags...
